Yes,: When you miss pills especially 2days in a row there is a chance of pregnancy if you are sexually active . Use condoms as a back up measure. Also you need to be on the bcp at least 2 weeks to be protected. Also bcp's do not protect against std's. So use condoms all the time to protect yourself. If you miss your period do a pregnancy test.
